Uttara,
Even I used to call Peach's posts as the Unique ones, with lack of a better expression when she used to amaze us with each new kind of post and now knowing what to make of them.


Peach,
I am not current with contemporary literature and writing styles. I just stopped with early and a bit of mid 20th. However I am dead sure, both HT and RR make it to poetry category, because the underlying theme runs deeps and it takes the readers to different realms the way they want to explore. Don't you agree ?

Poetry had never been my strength. I used to be puzzled with various kind of possibilities. That made me compensate myself to understand drama better and I was much better at this than the regular prose, where almost everyone is able to understand it. So I must say, my friend, you made my life easy with posting of RR seasons immediately in toe with HT Seasons. 😆
Must say, both versions are beautiful. The HT altogether transports me into a realm as if I am talking to a seer. 😆

@seer: Goodness! 😆

SD, you give me more credit than I deserve. But a big 🤗 for the compliment.

You liked the RR post.. What is it that you didnt like about the HT post?



Well, I would'nt say i did'nt like the HT post.
I liked the vivid use of language in RR...as opposed to the more enigmatic flow of HT. I will read more HT though, it is just because they were pitted against each other that I felt this way. 😊

I understand.. RR is more flowing.. I find them easier to write than the HT posts..

RamblinReck: Seasons

Fall' What does fall remind you of? Of falling down? Yes, it does. But it also reminds me of colors... Vibrant colors that refresh you. Such exquisite colors that delight your mind and add the extra spring to your step. The fall season is one of the most beautiful seasons visually. Do you gaze out to see the colorful leaves during this season? Ha... These colors never fail to delight even the grimmest person.


Yellow, orange, and red...

Do these colors remind you of her? Her with the delightful smile on her face... Her with eyes filled with hope... Her with eyes filled with pride... Her with eyes brimming with joy, blooming with the knowledge of her love for her husband...

Have you not seen her gazing at her husband when he is sleeping, her eyes speaking the depth of her love? Have you not seen her looking at her husband with a lost expression on her eyes?

Yellow, orange, and red...

Hope, passion, and romance...


Do you remember the smile on her face when she realizes her feelings for her husband? The excuses she makes to meet her husband? Do you remember her imagining herself dancing with him? On the bridge, clad in a red saree? Do you remember how shy she was to meet his eyes? Do you remember the moment her heart skipped a beat in the telephone booth? The smile on her face when her husband calls her "Biwi"?

Yellow, orange, and red...

Hope, passion, and romance...


Have you not enjoyed seeing her realization of love, like you enjoyed seeing the beautiful trees around you? Have you not enjoyed seeing her dance with her husband's coat? The dance in which she says 'I love you'... The smile on her face when she realizes she was dreaming of him?

Yellow, orange, and red...

Hope, passion, and romance...


The constant smile on her face... It baffles her poor husband, but it also makes him happy. "I am happy that you are so happy." Wasn't that what he told her? Like her happiness brings him joy, don't the fall colors fill our hearts with joy?

Is there anything she wouldn't do for him? Her happiness at keeping the vrat for her husband's long life... Does it not shine on her face? What hardships she endures for these colors...

Yellow, orange, and red...


That was yesterday and today, what do we have? Bare trees... Fall... Yes, It both delights and saddens... The once colorful leaves are now gone and lying all over the ground. Just like Madhu's hopes... What a painful sight to behold!

After fall, comes winter. Bitterly cold and harsh. Chill winds add to its harshness. Does his lashing at her in anger "You will not see your husband's face tonight" remind you of those cold winds blowing against the bare tree? What happens now?

The weak ones will fall under such an onslaught, but the strong will stand tall. The optimist among you will know this saying 'hope springs eternal', for what comes after winter but spring? The ones who endure winter are promised the fruits of spring!


PS. No pun intended re. fruits.
